There was a man whose wife was dumb. He was very sorry for her and never gave up hope that there would be a cure for her. Some years passed and one day the man found a doctor who promised to help. After a difficult operation, the wife returned home. And...what a miracle! She was able to talk! The man was very happy, but his happiness did not last long; once the woman started to talk, she could not stop. She talked day and night, and it started to drive her husband mad. Finally, he had had enough and went back to the doctor who had done the operation. The man asked the doctor to help him again and make his wife dumb, just the way she had been before. The doctor just shook his head. "I'm sorry I can't make your wife dumb again" he said, "but if it makes you so unhappy, I can make you deaf".
